I'm building a new computer since I sold my last rig for a laptop for school. This time I wanted to go all out and get something amazing. This rig will primaraly be designed to beast it up in TERA and BF3.

Budget is really w/e. I don't plan on building this soon.

My brother built something pretty close to this. It's pretty awesome.

Anyone know of any better cases? There's one case called Phantom that I like.

The NZXT Phantom is the case i use and i love it!

Only thing about that case I dislike is the front panel. Those usually break eventually :/

id wait for more 680 to be released, pretty much only reference right now.

Yo!... I built pretty much the same thing... I'd wait a week or two and get an ivy bridge

They come out on April 29th.... Z77 chipset + Ivy Bridge... get 1600Mhz DDR3 RAM

Front panel is pretty sturdy, but then again i never open it
